Forster heading to St Mary’s

Southampton set to sign England international

Southampton are set to sign England international goalkeeper Fraser Forster from Celtic in a £10m deal, according to reports from BBC Sport.

The Premier League side are understood to have agreed the fee with the Glasgow giants, who are resigned to the fact that they will be unable to keep him in Scotland even though they’ve been handed a second chance in the Champions League qualifiers following their defeat by now disqualified Legia Warsaw.

Forster is set to negotiate personal terms with the Saints, where he is likely to become the fifth big signing of the summer following the arrivals of Graziano Pelle, Saphir Taider, Dusan Tadic and Ryan Bertrand – the latter on loan from Chelsea.
